crowd 2.7.1 hangs when trying to login

[Christian Gebauer]

when trying to login to crowd console, i get the login screen. after entering the credentals and submitting them nothing happens anymore. the browser hangs at j_security_check forever telling me it is waiting for data. after 90 min i killed the request. the last statement in the logs is:

ajp-bio-8109-exec-6 WARN [beans.factory.config.CustomEditorConfigurer] Passing PropertyEditor instances into CustomEditorConfigurer is deprecated: use PropertyEditorRegistrars or PropertyEditor class names instead. Offending key [org.codehaus.xfire.service.ServiceFactory; offending editor instance: org.codehaus.xfire.spring.editors.ServiceFactoryEditor@3213289a

also, my registered applications (jira, stash, bamboo etc.) are unable to connect so i cannot login to these apps as well.

any ideas?

Same issue here. I could resolve it using Workaround 2 from https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CWD-3769
